Canyon Lake athletes are new with many of the, ‘We have never been this far
before,’ scenarios.
This week the Boy and Girl Hawk Track Teams will be competing against the best schools in Region IV, which is comprised of eight districts.
Two weeks ago each athlete that finished in the top three of any event punched their ticket to compete in the Region Meet that is being held at Corpus Christi this Friday and Saturday.
To advance to Austin for the State Meet these athletes will have to be in the top two in order to have a chance to run or throw or jump again.
The ReSporter has documented where Canyon Lake’s finishes have compared to their competitors. (you can find that below in our graph)
Last year Canyon Lake Girls Track Team had Jessica Cunningham make it to State in the Pole Vault. Cunningham also finished in fifth place scoring two points for Canyon Lake and breaking the ice for hopefully more Hawk athletes.
Cunningham has taken her Pole Vault Event and is now jumping for Stephen F. Austin.
The boys have not had a chance to go to State since they are still waiting to qualify but now they are in the qualify for the Second Day mode.
